Howl

We are more common these days,
the insane,
the anomie,
the id

We prowl the night
-as every day is night-
the sun an inverse moon
bleeding color on otherwise gray tones

And suck sweet sensations,
shivers up our spines,
hairs on end, eyes wide,
libido bursting
as we howl at the moon

-dadaismo-

Loving the edge in this! I especially like the alliteration at the beginning of the final stanza. Two wording thoughts: 1) "as every day is night" might feel better with "when every day is night" or "since every day is night" because you imply in your first stanza that there has been a change; 2) "libido" stuck out to me oddly, not sure why - maybe because the tone wasn't overtly sexual until that point? Still, very nice poem :)
